A Duchess (公爵夫人) called Anna first introduced afternoon tea in England. It was said that the Duchess often became hungry at around four oclock, because at that time dinner was served at eight oclock. On one occasion, the Duchess asked servants to bring tea, bread and butter, sandwiches and cakes to her room at 4 p.m. This became her habit and she soon began inviting friends to join her.Queen Victoria in the 19th century strongly supported the idea; and afternoon tea soon grew popular across England. Indeed, Queen Victoria was well-known for her craziness about tea. She threw her tea cup across the room if she found the tea not up to standard(达到标准)!

Tea is brewed（泡）and poured from silver teapots into delicate（ 精致 ）porcelain cups（瓷杯）.
